The current rules penalize people who are interested in PvP who are not willing to commit to it full time.
Correction: It penalises people who want to be gate camping high sec gates popping newbs on the weekend, and then returning to lvl 4 mission running during the week. Preferably with little to no risk to themselves, or even the minor inconvenience of having to rat their status back up.
People who are interested in PvP against those who can actually shoot back generally don't give a damn about sec status. Or they take the time to learn how to get around sec hits (as mentioned by previous poster).
Originally by: OT Smithers The high-sec mission runner (or equally, the person without a high sec alt) who wants to PvP part time is at a huge tactical disadvantage.
Not really, high sec mission runners who come to PvP in low sec will almost certainly get fights. In most of these fights they won't have to worry about sec hits as they won't be the ones shooting first Again the only real tactical disadvantage would be their inability to shoot everything that came through a high sec gate without suffering a sec hit for it. Crime= Punishment hmm?
Originally by: OT Smithers He gains little from heading to low-sec, so he might as well grief in high security where he controls the odds. The only group "hurt" by making low-sec free fire are reds losing this advantage, but even they will gain through added targets. It is win win.
So you want to be able to "grief" people in low sec without any cost to yourself? And again, flashy reds aren't losing any advantage, they are gaining one. No longer will hard bitten criminals have to worry about their sec standing always placing them at a disadvantage when fighting anywhere near sentries. Now all they have to do is rat up to neutral and gank away to their hearts content with no repercussions.
Honestly can't see this increasing targets to any noticeable extent. Those who are unafraid of losing ships already fly through low sec, those who are afraid don't (barring stupid mistakes). You want more targets in low sec, you need to give them a damn good reason to be there...this is not a damn good reason tbh.
Peace. ----

I was under the impression they were 37 and had an IQ of 12
